Big Win Slots

Here are some mighty high variance games that make winning at slots one of the most thrilling experiences gamblers can have online. These high volatility slots don’t have progressive jackpots, but they allow you to win big on any spin, whether from high value symbols, to multiplying free spins rounds, or huge cash prizes. These are not for the faint of heart, and beginners should beware; only the patient will conquer the best of these big win slots games.

And then there's us. The ones reading this big win slots page. We are the casino players who like the chase, and the thrill, that comes with hunting down those big five of a kind winning combinations, but have the patience, budget, and temperament to wait.

What do we mean by temperament? That means both the hopeful optimism that shouts that only a really big life-changing win on slots will do, but also the good nature to know when we are defeated, and try again another day.

All the games above are all high variance slots, which means you will need to be in for the long haul, wait out periods of winning very little to nothing at all, before you hit those bonus games or big wins that send you on a roller coaster ride of excitement.

And it's this excitement, mixed with the 1,000 times (or more) your bet wins, that make these video slot games so appealing.

What makes a great big win slot

We've already mentioned the thrilling heart-attack style wins that playing casino slots with a high volatility can bring.

But if all a great highly volatile slot game needed to do was provide a big win, then the list would be long, and so would your boredom.

Ultimately, you need to feel and understand where you can win, in order to get that thrill of anticipation.

Here are some of the things to look out for:

Games that have the potential to hit big in the base game and the bonus game, thanks to high paying symbols or wilds

Big multipliers, whether on wilds or the free spins, which can increase your balance quickly

Multiple wilds, or stacked wilds, that can lead to easier 5 of a kind wins over several pay lines

High paying 5 of a kind symbol wins (at least 5 to 10 times more than 4 of a kind)

They contain at least one big feature, like free spins, increasing multipliers, or click me feature

They start off slow, with little to no wins, until suddenly you get a chain reaction of big wins

Tend to have a lower return to player rate due to paying out bigger amounts

That said, rarely will one slot contain all of these

Which is why we write these big win video slot reviews. So you can see which slot features appeal to you, and the different gameplay you can enjoy.

Do you prefer quick and lively action? The Royal Masquerade slot by Play'n GO is for you. Or perhaps you prefer them slow and steady? Then how about the killer Katana slot by WMS?

For every style, there's a slot machine.

How to win big at slots

Whilst there's no way to predict when a high variance slot will decide to hit, there are a couple of pieces of advice we can give you.

Namely that, in 99% of the games, you'll be waiting for a bonus feature to hit to give the truly MEGA wins.

If the free spin bonus comes easily, like in Wild Turkey, then chances are you'll need to enter the bonus game several times in order to get a really decent win.

On the other hand, if the bonus game slots make you wait, like in 300 Shields, then, chances are, the free spins are worth waiting for.

But you'll need the balance to get there either way.

So budget carefully. We don't review these casino games just because we have a free hour of our time, we do it to help you out.

If we say it takes an average of 200 spins to get there... budget for 300 just to be safe.

Take your time, bet low, and only increase when you win big enough that you can, and so your not risking your own hard earned cash.

That way, you get to play for longer on casino slots that pay out big.

Do we have any favourite big win games?

One of the things we like about big win games is those that, even on a small bet, lets you dream of wins that could be 1,000, or even 10,000 times your bet.

Titan Thunder is the less well-known sister to NextGen 300 Shields, but is a particular favourite, with a starting bet of only 0.25 a spin.

The Great Blue is another slot with a wide betting range, and more importantly, rarely do we walk away from the free spins with anything less than 100 times our bet.

Finally, Spin Party by Play'n GO, a little-known slot, from an ever growing game provider, that deserves far more praise than it usually gets. Expanding wilds and constant re-spins keeps the action lively and thrilling.

Ultimately, no one but you can decide what type of big win slot game is for you.

And, if the budget starts to get a little tight, you know where to find the progressive jackpot video slots, for some slightly easier spins, but still with that optimism that, the next spin will change your life.
